Panel will seek an extension

OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT

Calcutta: Justice Mukul Mudgal, who is heading the probe into the IPL-related issues, wasn’t available for a comment, but The Telegraph learns that his panel will seek an extension to complete investigations.

According to a well-placed source, the panel may require between six to eight weeks more and the Supreme Court will be moved, on Friday, to grant an extension.

However, the related Cricket Association of Bihar matter has already been listed for Monday, so it’s to be seen if the Supreme Court actually passes an order.

Among those being investigated by the Justice Mudgal panel is Narayanswamy Srinivasan.
